The Lost Treasures of Rothley - Can YOU Uncover the Secrets?

Rothley residents were shocked to hear that the body of amateur historian, Luke Indepast, was found lifeless on the village green. It was widely known that Luke was researching some old parchments which may have lead to untold treasures. Locals have always believed that Sir Lloyd de Banque of The Rothley Temple brought items of great value back from the crusades and buried them in the area. But with Luke's death, the mystery remains unsolved.

What is a Treasure Trail?

Before You Set Off

The Trail is labelled as wheelchair and pushchair friendly but after Clue 18 there is a section along a country path with a kissing gate. A detour avoiding this section is pointed out in the Trail without missing out on any of the clues.
